Emperor of Man
LokonikahAs the trio went forward, they found themselves surrounded by Altmer soldiers, arranged in a square formation. They were merely escorts, of course, to protect their superiors in case things went south. When they reached the opened front gate, the wall lined with archers, they stepped forward and outside. Moving from the treeline was a party of seven armored Tsaesci, all in white armor. Six of them were surrounding the seventh, who had a more prominent headdress than the others. Their unarmored tails had scales that looked like they could stop a few blows from an elven sword before being pierced. Of course, not much would stop an Imperial Marine's rifle(d musket)... The leader steps forward, speaking in its strange tongue. It sounds like the same language that scholars found in Akaviri ruins, except this involved more hissing. <'I am Daimyo Tojo Tetsui of RyÅchi Hokumo. We pledge our swords to Emperor YunibÄsaru, and you have invaded our lands. Thus, you have invaded all of Akavir. Speak your business, outsider!'> (Japanese names are introduced with the family name first, and YunibÄsaru is just the Emperor's public name, like a title. It translates to Universal.) Sauriil bowed, slightly, in respect, '<I am Sauriil Adorin, Immortal of Auri-El, one of the three protecters of the realms. The Altmer have lost their home to the Imperials. We were forced to settle here, in Akavir. I am sure you know of me, of course, as I have lived here for centuries. Now I beg of you, as a visitor and not an invader, to aid us in our war against those who persecute my entire race. I know that the Tsaesci have gone through such times before, and that you would understand. What say you?>'
